Jones is fourth with 9.9 points-per-game.  The Joneses are shooting 62.7 percent from the floor (94-of-150), 60.0 percent on 3FG (12-of-20) and 73.8 percent at the FT line (59-of-80) to start 2011. By comparison, the Joneses averaged 20.2 points and 14.2 rebounds, but shot 49.4 percent from the floor (88-of-178), 17.6 percent from 3-point range (6-of-34) and 65.6 percent at the FT line (40-of-61) in Baylor's 11 games of 2010.  Both Perry Jones III and Anthony Jones are the only Bears shooting 60 percent or higher from the floor since the start of 2011.

PJ3 became the first Baylor freshman to post back-to-back 20-point games since LaceDarius Dunn did it twice during the 2007-08 season.  PJ3 has four 20-point games in Big 12 play. Jones III leads all Big 12 freshmen in both scoring (14.1) and FG percentage (57.1). He ranks 12th overall in scoring, tied for ninth in rebounding (7.0) and third in FG percentage, while leading the league in Big 12-only FG percentage (64.6) and is fifth in Big 12-only scoring (17.9).

QUEST FOR 400 LaceDarius Dunn, who is the active NCAA career leader in 3FG, is tied for 21st on the NCAA career list with 366 3-point field goals. Dunn is one 3FG behind Vanderbilt's Shan Foster for 20th on the career list.  In a road loss Feb. 2 at Oklahoma, Dunn passed Valparaiso's Bryce Drew -- brother of Baylor head coach Scott Drew -- on the NCAA career list.  Dunn needs 34 3FG to become only the 11th player in NCAA Division I history with 400+ career 3FG.
